Comment 43 for bug 1238194

I'm running into this on 13.04 (upgraded from 12.10). I can boot into the old 3.5.0 kernel, but 3.8.0 and any newer kernels don't work (and I've tried an assortment from the mainline ppa).

I've also tried adding all the mentioned modules to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, and none of that works either.

I'd like to upgrade to a newer kernel. I'd consider doing a release upgrade to 13.10, except based on the comments here, it doesn't sound like that would fix anything.

My keyboard is a "17ef:6009 Lenovo ThinkPad Keyboard with TrackPoint" (attached to a desktop machine).

Does anyone have any ideas for how I can use a newer kernel or ubuntu release with this system (besides reinstalling without full-disk encryption)?
